Jewish Philanthropy Podcast

Topic: Leveraging Impact Guest: Na'ama Ore Bio: Na'ama Ore, is the CEO of SparkIL. SparkIL is a new first-of-its-kind peer-to-peer lending platform where individuals can give interest-free loans to small businesses in Israel (see press release attached). As such, it's poised to change the face of the way small-gift donors contribute philanthropically in the Jewish world. These small interest-free loans not only help struggling businesses get off the ground in a difficult economy, but in doing so, also pave the way for individual lenders to connect with Israelis on a personal level. As a distinguished leader who previously served as regional director of the Israeli-American Council's Boston office, Ore explains how these small loans can be life-changing for those who live on the margins of Israeli society. In this Episode we explore:

1. Impact of Family

2. Graceful Transitions

3. Always Growing

4. Women Supporting Women

5. Impact Investing/Grass-Roots Effort

6. Quantity & Quality

7. The highest form of Charity

and much more
